    I was thinking of doing that. Thanks.

    MIRROR TURN SIGNAL OUT

    2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn. Left (driver's side) mirror turn signal is dead. Are these easy or a pain to replace?

    Blurry back up camera

    Mine kept getting worse since my last post. I finally had enough and bought a new one. Found a Mopar parts dealer on Ebay and bought one there. Installed it today. Works great! Nice, clear picture like it was when it was new. I hope it lasts.

    Finally, the Map Update - IF you can call it that...

    Yeah, that's me...team player all the way. ;)

    Finally, the Map Update - IF you can call it that...

    Finally got to order the much-waited-for Navigation Map update. It arrived today and I instantly installed it. It took 90 minutes to complete, with the engine running the entire time - but gas is cheap, right!? Anyway, I took it for a test drive to see what local updates were included. The...

    Absurd Map Update Situation

    I figured I couldn't possibly be the only one going through this. Thanks. Love my truck - but horrible support.

    Absurd Map Update Situation

    So I've been getting these promotional emails from U-Connect for several weeks/months now, pestering me to upgrade my maps. It's a 2019 with the original maps, and a lot of roads have changed around here since then, so I figured I'd pop for the "savings" and do the upgrade. I follow the...

    Blurry back up camera

    Yep - agree. When they work, they really are nice. You don't realize how much you rely on something until it's gone...

    Blurry back up camera

    Were you ever able to get this resolved? If so, what was the fix? Last Saturday, out of the clear blue - mine went out. The image is so cloudy that I can't see anything at all, only faint images of things moving. And my camera looks clear - no dirt, no moisture, and no plastic film. Before this...

    Any good way of sealing tailgate?

    Thanks. I'll give that a try.

    Any good way of sealing tailgate?

    Has anyone found a good way of sealing the tailgate so that water doesn't leak in? Particularly the cavernous spaces at the top between the tailgate and the sidewalls. I tried one of the ESI seal kits, but it didn't even come close to filling those gaps at the top. I have a BakFlip MX4 tonneau...

    Condensation front and back camera

    I have a 2019 Bighorn with only the rear camera. Thing fogs up with condensation easily. Becomes utterly useless. Is this a common issue with these trucks? Is there a fix, besides a new camera?

    Can replacement rear coil springs increase cargo capacity?

    That's kind of what I was wondering. Thinking there just may be other factors besides springs that determine cargo capacity. Excellent point. Thanks.

    Can replacement rear coil springs increase cargo capacity?

    I've seen several vendors carry replacement rear coil springs, with 0" lift. The choices I've seen are 2058 lb capacity and 2480 lb capacity. Are either of these ratings greater than what the factory springs are rated? And if so, would the greater than factory rating increase the vehicle's cargo...

    A/C is on, even when it's off.

    I understand. And these things are good, don't get me wrong. However, I drive with the windows open sometimes, and to have the A/C come on while the windows are open really doesn't do anything positive. Just blows cold air that goes right out the windows. I guess that's where I'd just turn the...

    A/C is on, even when it's off.

    Interesting. Well, that would certainly explain it. It's like the 'Auto' mode can never really be fully turned off, unless you turn off the entire system.

    A/C is on, even when it's off.

    Not sure why this is, or if I'm the only one experiencing this, but even when I set Auto (climate control) to off and AC to off, it still blows cold A/C air from the vents. The only way I seem to be able to turn the A/C off is to press the Off button, which shuts down the climate control system...

    Official thread for pictures of Ram towing campers

    Factory says empty 6002 lb, GVWR 7600. Haven't had it weighed yet. Have only towed tanks-empty so far. Using a Fastway E2 Trunnion hitch(weight distributing) and have replaced the factory jounce bumpers with Timbrens. I will say, the RV dealer that installed the hitch did NOT adjust it...

    Love/Hate with Android Auto-No radio/sat sound when phone is plugged in! HELP

    That happens with my iPhone and CarPlay as well sometimes. My fix has been to unplug the phone, turn the radio back on and replug the phone in. Usually the second time works. It's maddening though. My VW Tiguan's CarPlay works flawlessly. They can get it right - why not Ram?
